Copying from server to a local machine

Hi,

I am trying to copy a file from oracle home on a unix platform to my local machine. I think i can use ftp but i am not sure of the exact syntax and way i should write this. Can someone help please?

Is your local machine Windows?

download WinSCP for your PC: WinSCP :: Free SFTP and FTP client for Windows

open cmd in windwos

ftp "ip address"

enter your username
enter your password

write"bin" then write "hash"
write "get thefileyouwant"

to close write bye

but winscp is very helpfull
